<strong>The</strong>re were also at <strong>the</strong> Festival some Greeks who had gone up to Jerusalem to worship. Approaching Philip, who came from<br />

Bethsaida in Galilee, <strong>the</strong>y made a request to him:<br />

GREEKS.<br />

Sir, we would like to see <strong>Jesus</strong>.<br />

NARRATOR.<br />

Philip <strong>the</strong>n went to tell Andrew and toge<strong>the</strong>r Andrew and Philip went to tell <strong>Jesus</strong>. He replied and said to <strong>the</strong>m:<br />

JESUS.<br />

<strong>The</strong> hour has now arrived for <strong>the</strong> Son <strong>of</strong> Man to be glorified. I tell you most sincerely, unless a grain <strong>of</strong> wheat falls to <strong>the</strong> ground and<br />

dies, it will remain only a single grain. But if it does die, it will yield a rich harvest. Anyone who loves his life will lose it; anyone<br />

who hates his life in this world will keep it unto eternal life. If a man serves me, he must follow me. Wherever I am, my servant will<br />

be <strong>the</strong>re also. If anyone serves me, my Fa<strong>the</strong>r will honor him. Now my soul is troubled and what can I say, "Fa<strong>the</strong>r save me from this<br />

hour?" It was for this very reason that I have come to this hour. Fa<strong>the</strong>r, glorify you name!<br />

NARRATOR.<br />

And <strong>the</strong>re came a voice from heaven saying:<br />

"I have both glorified it and will glorify it again."<br />

People who were standing <strong>the</strong>re and who heard this said, 'It was a clap <strong>of</strong> thunder'. O<strong>the</strong>rs said, 'It was an angel speaking to him'.<br />

<strong>Jesus</strong> replied:<br />

JESUS.<br />

It was not for my sake that this voice came, but for yours. Now is <strong>the</strong> judgment <strong>of</strong> this world. Now is <strong>the</strong> prince <strong>of</strong> this world to be<br />

cast out. And I, if I will be lifted up from <strong>the</strong> earth, I will draw all men to myself.<br />

NARRATOR.<br />

By <strong>the</strong>se words he indicated <strong>the</strong> manner in which he was going to die. <strong>The</strong> crowds replied:<br />

CROWDS.<br />

We have heard out <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Law that Christ will remain forever. So how can you say, "<strong>The</strong> Son <strong>of</strong> Man must be lifted up?" Who is this<br />

Son <strong>of</strong> Man?<br />

JESUS.<br />

<strong>The</strong> light will be with you only a little while longer. Walk, while you have <strong>the</strong> light or <strong>the</strong> darkness will overtake you. He that walks<br />

in <strong>the</strong> dark does not know where he is going. While you still have <strong>the</strong> light, believe in <strong>the</strong> light and you will become sons <strong>of</strong> light.<br />

NARRATOR.<br />

Having said this, <strong>Jesus</strong> left <strong>the</strong>m and hide himself from <strong>the</strong>m.<br />
